At this year’s BandLab NME Awards, Lambert teased his new record as a “rock opera” concept album. “I’m working on a concept album,” he said when asked about any new music on the horizon.

He added: “I can’t say much about the concept yet but it’s about a person, it’s a story. A musical of sorts. Or a rock opera, anyway you want to call it.”

Earlier this year, Lambert and Queen released a new online concert film called Rhapsody Over London.

The performance was shot at one of the legendary band’s 10 sold-out shows at The O2 Arena in London this summer as part of their 2022 ‘Rhapsody Tour’.
